Marienstatt Abbey: The door is open - the heart even more so!
What Are Abbey Sessions?
EiE Abbey Sessions take place in monasteries or abbeys. Many abbeys were built in remote locations, such as mountains or forests, to provide a peaceful and contemplative environment for the community. These abbeys often became important centers of learning and culture, where scholars and artists could come to study and create.
The Lenthe Foundation — which has organized Ethics in Electronics events over the past three years — is managing a 30-hour Abbey Session on October 12, 2023, at the Marienstatt Abbey in Germany. Led by Dr. Ralf Bodelier, Dr. Mirjam Vossen, and Prof. Dr. Stefan Heinemann, attendees will participate in discussions, attend lectures, enjoy short walks, watch relevant films, and share meals (including breakfast, lunch, and supper).

Discussion topics will include:
Our Material Progress: Where are we today? Are we making headway in terms of global poverty, CO2 emission reduction, climate change, and so on? How do electronics and high-tech applications affect things?
Our Moral Progress: How are our ideas about society evolving? How do our views on topics such as human rights and safety differ from previous generations?
The Media & Our Worldview: How does the media shape our worldview? Can we learn to evaluate media coverage critically? How can we discern what is true and what is not?
Talking About Values: What are our values? What is important? How can our business values align with our person ones? We will explore how to communicate our values effectively.
Join the discussion and help to inspire others to make our world a better place!
